With The Cavalry In The West Classic Reprint

Excerpt from With the Cavalry in the West It seems like looking up a page of very ancient history when I take my mind back to the day on which I entered Sandhurst. So much has been crammed into those four and a half years that the beginning of them seems to belong to another world. And yet, in a way, they have gone quickly. Time always does fly when you are busy. And it is only since 1914 that I have learnt what it means to be really busy. One thought one had a lot to do in Trial Week at School, or when one was Head of this or Captain of that. But if necessary one could do twice the work - I mean if one really had to. At Oxford, where I passed a few pleasant terms, one thought one was busy in School's week; but it seems as nothing compared to what people have had to do since, both in military and civil life.

Excerpt from Minty and the Cavalry: A History of Cavalry Campaigns in the Western Armies To my comrades in arms, who may differ with me in the ac counts herein contained, I would call to mind the difficulty of getting any considerable number to agree upon all the circum stances Of even the most trivial incident in camp or field; and while I do not pretend to give all the notable or even important events which transpired in our field Of Operations, I do claim to have sought earnestly to state the exact facts in those noted. In treating of the independent regiments, or parts of regiments, I have, by extensive correspondence, extending over a number of years, arrived at the conclusions given, while in tracing the ope rations of the brigades and the divisions, I have carefully followed the official reports and official correspondence written at the time. In the accounts Of charges and battles, I have uniformly given credit to those leading the advance, without, in any wise, however, detracting from the important service rendered by those in rear or in reserve.

Excerpt from Cavalry Some prominence has lately been given in England to erroneous views concerning the arma ment and tactics of cavalry. General von Bern hardi's book contains sound doctrine on this subject, and will Show to every one who has an open mind and is capable of conviction by reasoned argument how great is the future role of cavalry, and how determined are the efforts of the great cavalry/ leaders of Europe to keep abreast with the times, and to absorb, for the profit of the arm, every lesson taught by experience, both in peace and war.
